I loved the DJ/Dancing (we had so much fun!), I loved being a part of it all (it was my sister’s wedding and I was her MOH), and I loved the venue.

I disliked the photographer, the flowergirl (kept us totally unfocused during the ceremony…thus we aren’t having kids in our ceremony), and the way everything seemed kind of thrown together (i.e. there was no first look, my other sister threw a hissy fit 10 minutes before, and we forgot to give the bride and groom a proper exit)

The bride’s dress – a GORGEOUS lace mermaid concoction that sheathed the bride & flowed out to a beautiful chapel train

The flower girl – the bride’s less than a year old niece (first grandchild), carried down the aisle by her father

The distance between the ceremony & the reception – practically walking distance!

Things I would have done differently:

Unprofessional look/dress of the day of coordinators at the ceremony & reception (two different ladies) – at the ceremony (which was cocktail style), the DOC was in black tights, black T-shirt, & a dark grey (I can’t call it black) denim vest…at the reception, the DOC was dressed properly, but her hair was sloppy & looked like she didn’t even brush it (& not in a stylish, bed-head way)

The pushiness of the videographer – the team kept getting in our group of friends’ faces to say a message at inopportune times (in the middle of one friend’s story, while we were eating dinner, just as we all were getting up to do a surprise for the bride & groom). It made all of us NOT want to say a message…finally a (tipsy) friend told the videographer to be more polite & just film the surprise as our message

The lack of someone in charge of the iPod during the reception dancing…kinda killed some dancing moments
